Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a SAR system for a hypothetical satellite with specific conditions including bandwidth and expected resolution. What specifications would you propose?

💡 Hint: Consider the formulas for both azimuth and range resolution.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate the effects of terrain height variations on SAR performance. How might motion compensation be structured to adapt to this?

💡 Hint: Consider algorithms that dynamically adjust processing based on elevation data.
